I have wanted a flat fender since my childhood. Ended up with a free CJ3A, but it had horribly rusted rear tub, bad transmission, questionable engine, but with a pto. By chance, ended up with a free , but butchered CJ2A with freeze-cracked engine. Im currently knee deep in the restoration of my Marmon Herrington 4wd Ford, so performing a miracle on a Jeep was way down the road. Then lucked into this. It has a Warn OD, which will be replaced with the pto. I haven’t heard it run, needs fuel line installed and correct shoes put in front brakes. Has the usual rust in hat channels. But am going to get it running, street legal, and enjoy as is for now. The “tall” Dualmatic hubs are a bonus. If anyone has a junk hub with a good lever, pm me, please. Luckily, my butchered Jeep had a nice windshield and perfect tailgate.
Congratulations on the jeep and looks like a fun project. What’s great is the abundance of body panels for the cj3 . I know there is a joint in IN that sells complete bodies as well and pretty cheap too
